in India, thanks to the global success of books like Fifty Shades of Grey. Today, the Indian book market embraces erotic novels more openly, with many readers no longer feeling the need to keep it behind closed doors


. Yet, even as sex becomes a less taboo subject, it remains a forbidden fruit in many parts of Indian society

.
